Reviews & Ratings

This was my first and last Rock the Bells. I gave it 4 stars because had it not been for Nas, Scarface & Lauren Hill I would have hated it. Something should be done about the wait time in between sets other than just pumpimg music through the speakers. A live DJ or filler artist would have made it better...ijs
